Data validation in a different controller

2009-05-25 Thread Bob Mattax

I'm not sure of the best path here.

Here's what I'm doing right now:
I have a user table, and I have a couple different types of users.  I
figured I would create a signup controller, and have it *use* the User
model.  When I create my form in the signup/typeA view, I still make
it on the user Model, but then that posts to the user controller,
which I'm ok with, but I'd like to be redirected back to the Signup
controller if there's a problem  I've got that working too, but my
problem is that if there are validation errors, I can't get it to show
up 'magically' when I redirect back to the referring Signup page.  Is
there just some "set" that I need to do?  I'm sure its been done, and
will be simple, I just can't figure out what it is.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Bob

Plugin images (any update?)

2009-02-03 Thread Bob Mattax

I've found a couple posts regarding plugin images, and didn't know if
anything has changed in the last few builds.

Is there a good post on the best way to have a plugin contain images
that it needs?

Thanks

REST routing

2008-11-17 Thread Bob Mattax

I am trying to take advantage of the default rest routing, and can't
seem to get it to work.  I think the issue is that my ID I'm passing
isn't numeric.

1)  Is there someway to override the "ID must be numeric" regex if I'm
using an email as an id instead?
2)  Is there a list of the various routes that are created w/ the
mapResources command?  What I'm looking for is a couple of
Router::Connect( ) examples that represent what happens in that
command.

Thanks

Using maven for deployment

2008-10-10 Thread Bob Mattax

Has anyone experimented with using maven to bundle their website, and
accumulate dependencies?

I'm being asked to do so for our website, as all our other projects
are integrated into this deployment strategy.

Thanks!

Javascript library + images + etc as Vendor?

2008-06-05 Thread Bob Mattax

I'm trying to figure out where to put this javascript library and its
associated files.

I can't seem to figure it out.  I put it in the app level vendor
directory, but then I'm not sure how to access the images.

I tried looking at the vendor examples, but they're pretty empty.

Thanks

Complex findAll/Count, and specifying conditions on the HABTM

2008-03-02 Thread Bob Mattax

I'm trying to write an app for managing some of rental properties.
Here is a basic outline of the models I'm trying to work with right
now.  I'm working on making the functions in my model to handle
paginating the results.

A - Campus
id
HABTM Building
B - CampusesBuilding
campus_id
building_id
distance
C - Building
HABTM Campus
hasMany Units
D - Unit
belongsTo Building
building_id
rent
beds
baths

I'm trying to use a findAll and specify conditions on Campus,
CampusesBuilding, and Unit.  Specifically, I'm providing a Campus
.id, CampusesBuilding.distance, and Unit.rent/beds/baths.

I'm trying this by writing the custom paginate, and paginateCount
functions on the Unit.  I can get it to work fine until I try adding
the condition that relates to the distance field.  Once I add the
distance field, I get the "unknown field" error, for
CampusesBuilding.distance. I'm collecting all the conditions and
passing them all to the paginate function.  Is there some intermediate
step I should be doing, or maybe starting from the other end.

Should just performing paginate on Unit work?  $this->Unit-
>paginate($allconditions) , or should I start at the Campus? $this-
>Campus->CampusesBuilding->Building->Unit->findAll($cond...) Maybe it
doesn't matter.

Is this something that will improve if I upgrade to a newer version of
CakePHP?  I'm on version 1.2.0.5427alpha.

Any help would be appreciated.  If you need more specfics, like the
actual models I have set up, I can probably put together a
bin for it all.

Thanks,
Bob

Table-less model associations

2008-02-25 Thread Bob Mattax

I have a situation where I'm interacting w/ an API where I have to use
some webservices to access data from a User and Account table.

I've figured out for the most part how to handle the models just by
themselves, but am looking for information on whether I will be able
to take advantage of hasOne, belongsTo associations between table-less
models.  I have some more models available via the API that I would
like to explore having associations to as well.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks,
Bob

Re: More HABTM : Adding another model to the filtered findAll()

If I just make the query, will I still have the same abilities for
pagination?  I thought I remembered reading that I wouldn't.

More HABTM : Adding another model to the filtered findAll()

2007-10-22 Thread Bob Mattax

I've looked through and tried all of the HABTM filtering discussions,
and have tried to adapt them to my needs, but I just can't seem to get
it to work.  Here is the basic set of relationships that I'm trying to
find results for:

Units -> Buildings -> HABTM <- Campuses

I'm working on making a small rental property application, and I want
to be able to find the units with certain specs that match certain
criteria for the unit, but also exist within a certain campus.  I've
tried binding models on the fly, but I'm not getting very far.  The
queries displayed in my debugging always come short of including all
the joins I would have expected.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Bob
